Love computer warranties! Yay! for all the gals who've acquired agents and a publisher. :)))<br /><br />Working fast and furious on August Camp Nano. Hoping I get it finished by the end of the month. I really, really want to do GUTGAA this year. Is is silly if I have two projects in mind? One adult and one children's? Or should I focus on one?<br /><br />About to grab my badge. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02691497935668743387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016505486794178553.post-6154409009701049432012-08-15T16:23:17.642-04:002012-08-15T16:23:17.642-04:00Glad your boxes are getting there...I really don&#...Glad your boxes are getting there...I really don't like moving!

My family's first computer was one of the original '84 Macs (I think it was the later 156K and not the first 128K), and it lasted until September '93, when there was some kind of short circuit. Then our second computer, a '93 Mac, lasted long enough to be passed down to me, and sadly also short-circuited in May of 2002 when a cup of water spilled into the back. I still miss both of those computers and would love to buy them again through eBay.<br /><br />I've been participating in Write On Con this week, and I've been given new confidence in querying some of my historicals with younger characters as YA, even though it's not a very popular YA genre at the moment. I'm also confident in reclassifying (at least the first two books of) my introductory Atlantic City series as MG, not lower YA. It's been so wonderful to see more than a few other historical writers there, writers who do straight historical instead of "sexy historical" or paranormal or fantasy that just happens to be set in the past.Carrie-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810154378449825641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016505486794178553.post-12317262935985566082012-08-15T11:23:20.735-04:002012-08-15T11:23:20.735-04:00Good luck with your computer!

For almost six years ...Truth to tell...not so hot.<br /><br />For almost six years my main online site was Multiply.com, where I was posting my writing and where I had almost all my online contacts. As of may last year I shifted my online writing site to this one, but Multiply was still my primary networking site and I used to cross-post articles from here there. Now, Multiply has announced that as of 1 December they're going to close down their blogging site and convert to a marketing site (a doomed venture as many people have pointed out) and I'm left with over 2400 items of original writing, thousands of photos, many tens of videos and I don't even know how many responses (which were often more entertaining and informative than anything else) to save. I'm using a tool called HT Track to download and save the site but I don't know how much use it will be.<br /><br />All this has had a deleterious effect on my writing. I am drawing a cartoon on <a href="http://ragheadthefiendlyterrorist.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">this site</a>, but that's hardly a substitute for writing.<br /><br />Also I'm cripplingly busy at work.<br />Bill the Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08436195659154078021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016505486794178553.post-75092601643071613032012-08-15T01:30:53.869-04:002012-08-15T01:30:53.869-04:00Sucky that your computer crashed fingers are cross...Sucky that your computer crashed fingers are crossed they fix it.
